Custom Colony…

Paddy Gross works at a bike shop called The Outer Rim in Portland & of course is a heavy supporter of us here at Colony. He has been selling plenty of Colony bikes & parts of late & sent in this about a special custom he just sold… Thanks for your support Paddy & Joe !!

Hey mate, Joe Prisel (Toledo Joe) was shopping at our shop and built himself a The Living Frame with Twenty Four Seven Bars, Variant Stem, CC Sprocket, Guardian Fork and a Fat Shield Seat. He’s been riding it since 2 weeks now and says it’s the best bike he ever had! He’s originally from Cleveland, Ohio and used to be a Chenga World local back in the day. I am stoked he loves it and I am also stoked it’s one more person riding Colony around here, hell yeah! – Cheers, Paddy
